Fix for VT restore issues on many laptop panels.
Hi all, Since fd.o is currently in a maintainance state and not accessible, and since this fix is one for a bug that has been pestering many people, i am sending this patch here directly. It applies on top of a current git, i think it will also apply nicely on top of a git tree all the way back to 30th of april (where i last fixed an issue with plls for the rv620). This patch fixes the issue we saw on mostly m56 and m54 laptops; where attaching an external display meant that, upon vt restore, the internal panel wouldn't come up anymore. It might also help with the issue of colour cycling on m54 laptops, but since i have no access to such hardware myself, this will have to be tested still. So please get me some feedback ASAP :) Once our git is back up again, i will push this fix and start working the bugs for this. Thanks, Luc Verhaegen. SUSE/Novell X Driver Developer.

Give me a day or two. I usually only see mode setting issues coming out of hibernation and attempting to use an external monitor, but _only_ after I've resumed out of hibernation without the external monitor once, then hibernate again. It's a little bit of a hassle to test for it specifically especially since this is my only machine that I can attach a monitor to, but I should be able to give some updates when I get back from work tonight (PST). :) - Yang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help@opensuse.org
